Say, "O People of the Scripture, come to a word that is equitable between us and you - that we will not worship except Allah and not associate anything with Him and not take one another as lords instead of Allah." But if they turn away, then say, "Bear witness that we are Muslims [submitting to Him]." O People of the Scripture, why do you argue about Abraham while the Torah and the Gospel were not revealed until after him? Then will you not reason? Here you are - those who have argued about that of which you have [some] knowledge, but why do you argue about that of which you have no knowledge? And Allah knows, while you know not. Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was one inclining toward truth, a Muslim [submitting to Allah]. And he was not of the polytheists. Indeed, the most worthy of Abraham among the people are those who followed him [in submission to Allah] and this prophet, and those who believe [in his message]. And Allah is the ally of the believers. A faction of the people of the Scripture wish they could mislead you. But they do not mislead except themselves, and they perceive [it] not. O People of the Scripture, why do you disbelieve in the verses of Allah while you witness [to their truth]?

Holy Quran 3:64-70

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------In the name of Allah,the Most Compassionate the Most Merciful.

O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul [created at a command] from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers. And do not say, "Three"; desist - it is better for you. Indeed, Allah is but one God. Exalted is He above having a son. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs.

And
[beware the Day] when Allah will say, "O Jesus, Son of Mary, did you say to the
people, 'Take me and my mother as deities besides Allah?'" He will say, "Exalted
are You! It was not for me to say that to which I have no right. If I had said
it, You would have known it. You know what is within myself, and I do not know
what is within Yourself. Indeed, it is You who is Knower of the unseen.

Holy Quran 5:11

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------In the name of Allah,the Most Compassionate the Most Merciful.

He has ordained for you of religion what He enjoined upon Noah and that which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what We enjoined upon Abraham and Moses and Jesus - to establish the religion and not be divided therein. Difficult for those who associate others with Allah is that to which you invite them. Allah chooses for Himself whom He wills and guides to Himself whoever turns back [to Him].

By the mountAnd [by] a Book inscribedIn parchment spread open And [by] the frequented HouseAnd [by] the heaven raised high And [by] the sea filled [with fire], Indeed, the punishment of your Lord will occur.Of it there is no preventer.On the Day the heaven will sway with circular motionAnd the mountains will pass on, departing - Then woe, that Day, to the deniers,Who are in [empty] discourse amusing themselves.The Day they are thrust toward the fire of Hell with a [violent] thrust, [its angels will say],"This is the Fire which you used to deny.Then is this magic, or do you not see? [Enter to] burn therein; then be patient or impatient - it is all the same for you. You are only being recompensed [for] what you used to do."Indeed, the righteous will be in gardens and pleasure,Enjoying what their Lord has given them, and their Lord protected them from the punishment of Hellfire. [They will be told], "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do."They will be reclining on thrones lined up, and We will marry them to fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes.And those who believed and whose descendants followed them in faith - We will join with them their descendants, and We will not deprive them of anything of their deeds. Every person, for what he earned, is retained.And We will provide them with fruit and meat from whatever they desire.They will exchange with one another a cup [drink] wherein [results] no ill speech or commission of sin. There will circulate among them [servant] boys [especially] for them, as if they were pearls well-protected.And they will approach one another, inquiring of each other. They will say, "Indeed, we were previously among our people fearful [of displeasing Allah].So Allah conferred favor upon us and protected us from the punishment of the Scorching Fire.Indeed, we used to supplicate Him before. Indeed, it is He who is the Beneficent, the Merciful."So remind [O Muhammad], for you are not, by the favor of your Lord, a soothsayer or a madman.Or do they say [of you], "A poet for whom we await a misfortune of time?" Say, "Wait, for indeed I am, with you, among the waiters."Or do their minds command them to [say] this, or are they a transgressing people?Or do they say, "He has made it up"? Rather, they do not believe.Then let them produce a statement like it, if they should be truthful.Or were they created by nothing, or were they the creators [of themselves]? Or did they create the heavens and the earth? Rather, they are not certain. Or have they the depositories [containing the provision] of your Lord? Or are they the controllers [of them]?Or have they a stairway [into the heaven] upon which they listen? Then let their listener produce a clear authority.Or has He daughters while you have sons?Or do you, [O Muhammad], ask of them a payment, so they are by debt burdened down?Or have they [knowledge of] the unseen, so they write [it] down?Or do they intend a plan? But those who disbelieve - they are the object of a plan.Or have they a deity other than Allah? Exalted is Allah above whatever they associate with Him.And if they were to see a fragment from the sky falling, they would say, "[It is merely] clouds heaped up."So leave them until they meet their Day in which they will be struck insensible -The Day their plan will not avail them at all, nor will they be helped.And indeed, for those who have wronged is a punishment before that, but most of them do not know.And be patient, [O Muhammad], for the decision of your Lord, for indeed, you are in Our eyes. And exalt [Allah] with praise of your Lord when you arise.And in a part of the night exalt Him and after [the setting of] the stars.

Ha, Meem.[This is] a revelation from the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful -A Book whose verses have been detailed, an Arabic Qur'an for a people who know,As a giver of good tidings and a warner; but most of them turn away, so they do not hear.And they say, "Our hearts are within coverings from that to which you invite us, and in our ears is deafness, and between us and you is a partition, so work; indeed, we are working."Say, O [Muhammad], "I am only a man like you to whom it has been revealed that your god is but one God; so take a straight course to Him and seek His forgiveness." And woe to those who associate others with Allah -Those who do not give zakah(poor-rate), and in the Hereafter they are disbelievers.Indeed, those who believe and do righteous deeds - for them is a reward uninterrupted.Say, "Do you indeed disbelieve in He who created the earth in two days and attribute to Him equals? That is the Lord of the worlds."And He placed on the earth firmly set mountains over its surface, and He blessed it and determined therein its [creatures'] sustenance in four days without distinction - for [the information] of those who ask.Then He directed Himself to the heaven while it was smoke and said to it and to the earth, "Come [into being], willingly or by compulsion." They said, "We have come willingly."
